include path to what

when i sign in i get

Account not not yet activated. | Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-06-23 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance).

i followed the tutorial on the site like it said the only thing i can think of that i could of did wrong is leave this like this.

<?php
ini_set ("include_path", ini_get ("include_path") . ':../:../../:../../../:../../../../');
include ('ad_network_296.php');
echo $ad_network;
?>

what am im including the path too


when i goto the site i get this error


You must set the ad network .txt file to be writable (or file is not within path).

then i did this

<?php
ini_set ("ad_network_ads_296.txt", ini_get ("ad_network_ads_296.txt") . ':../:../../:../../../:../../../../');
include ('ad_network_296.php');
echo $ad_network;
?>


the txt file is in the root dir

and my .htaccess has info in it


do i did this there


AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html
# -FrontPage-
IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

AuthName www.linksharp.com
AuthUserFile /home/wytch/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/wytch/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp


and i still get this

Account not not yet activated. | Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-06-23 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance).

anyone see what im doing wrong

 

You lost me...

But have you set your txt file to be writable?

 

chmod 777 on the ad_network_ads_296.txt and ad_network_296.php files

 

ok now i get

Ads not found on http://www.linksharp.com/

how do i get the ads to show up on the site. can you tell me that and then i think it will work.

i added this to tthe sites code i then took it off after i seen nothing happen to the sites ad system

<? include("ad_network_296.php"); ?>

 

how do i get adds running on the site.
what do i add to the site to get the ads to show up thats my problem i think.

what code do i put on my site pages to make the ads show up.

 

linksharp, I think you need to do two things:

1. find out if your server supports PHP
2. re-read the instructions for installation -- at the very least, you need to add some code to the pages to "include" the coop ads on your pages -- how you will do that depends on whether you can use PHP or not
